Win Tickets to Twangfest's Friday Show at Off Broadway

The eighteenth installment of Twangfest, presented by KDHX (88.1 FM), kicks off its four-day run tonight at Plush with a performance by Cody ChesnuTT, DeRobert & the Half-Truths and Theresa Payne, and it will continue beyond that at Off Broadway, bringing a slew of top-name acts to St. Louis' hungry music fans. While each night's lineup more than deserves your attention, Friday's show features some particularly exciting St. Louis favorites: Springfield's Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin, the venerable Centro-matic, Nashville-by-way-of-Chicago's Tristen and St. Louis' very own Beth Bombara.

Want to go to Friday's show? For free? Good, because we've got two tickets to give away.

About a month ago, SSLYBY traveled to Russia to headline the Old New Rock Festival, sponsored by the Boris Yeltsin Foundation and set in Yekaterinburg, where the former Russian president first began his political career. The band documented the proceedings all along the way, resulting in last month's music video for "Young Presidents," off 2013's Fly by Wire. When one considers all of the saber-rattling and Kinda Chilly War happenings between the U.S. and Russia right now, the video becomes even more interesting.
